Efficacy of Endophytic Bacterium <i>Serratia marcescens</i> B.SB 1.1 associated with Sea Fern (<i>Acrostichum aureum</i> L.) as an Antidiabetic Agent. [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a primary global health concern, often progressing unnoticed until complications arise. Current antidiabetic therapies primarily aim to inhibit the α-amylase enzyme, thereby reducing blood glucose levels. Some medicinal plants are proven to be symbiotic with endophytic bacteria that produce bioactive compounds capable of ...

Reproductive Biology and Gametophyte Morphology of New World Populations of Acrostichum aureum
The majority of homosporous ferns are characterized by a life-cycle which permits the production of a genetically homozygous zygote following selffertilization of a single gametophyte (intragametophytic selfing). This homozygosity leads to the expression of recessive deleterious or lethal genes (genetic load, as defined here) present in the genotype ...

Common but Least Noticed: Diversity of the Mangrove Fern Acrostichum aureum in Hainan Island, China
ABSTRACTAcrostichum aureum across nine coastal sites in Hainan Island was examined using morphological, cytometric, and genomic approaches. Cluster analysis identified five ecologically distinct clades linked to pinna morphology and habitat. Flow cytometry suggested sexual reproduction without ploidy‐spore number correlation.

The ecology and physiology of fern gametophytes: A methodological synthesis. [PDF]
Abstract All green plants alternate between the gametophyte and sporophyte life stages, but only seed‐free vascular plants (ferns and lycophytes) have independent, free‐living gametophytes. Fern and lycophyte gametophytes are significantly reduced in size and morphological complexity relative to their sporophytic counterparts and have often been ...

Integrating MaxEnt and PLUS for Predictive Modeling of Mangrove Suitability and Land Use Impacts in Coastal Guangdong, China. [PDF]
This study integrates the MaxEnt ecological niche model with the PLUS land use change model to construct a framework for predicting mangrove suitability and simulating future land use dynamics. It evaluates the spatial conflicts between potential mangrove distribution and urban expansion under different scenarios along the coastal areas of Guangdong ...

Impact of Anthropogenic Pollution on the Plant Species Diversity and Composition Along the Riparian Ecotones of Goa's Sal and Zuari Rivers. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic pressures are increasingly constraining the health of riparian ecosystems by exposing their remnant vegetation to edge effects. Despite being at the land–water interface, conservation efforts have often overlooked how water pollution may indirectly exacerbate the broader impacts of anthropogenic pressures on riparian vegetation ...

Anticancer potential of phytochemicals derived from mangrove plants: Comprehensive mechanistic insights. [PDF]
The primary goal of the present study was to evaluate the anticancer abilities of mangrove plants and their compounds in great detail. In addition, we seek to investigate the molecular processes that give rise to mangrove plants and their phytochemical anticancer properties, focusing on their possible application in cancer treatment, which could ...
